Elf on the Shelf- RedFred

HThe strangest thing happened yesterday, imprinted something on my printer and I found this note! 

12/2

We searched the room to find an elf and we saw one sitting up on really high next to the stuffed animals. 

We quickly voted on a name and RedFred won! We are so excited to be the class they chose to watch for good behavior, students who are sharing, friendly, and kind! I think he picked the best classroom to find those things too!

We found him on our whiteboard and today is a C day but I think RedFred is playing a joke on us!
